Holly Stealth Buildup
Well, i did it, i'm in the process of purchasing this Holly Stealth setup from Dennyz51: so... I have the following (1) 48mm TB, (2) set of stock injector cleaned and flow, (3) new gasket set, (4) 1.6 SA RR's, (5) new edelbrock elite valve covers & feltpro gasket set, but the main part is the Stealth setup.
Will the TB and Injectors be a good start?
side note: the Stealth will go out to get chromed and new SS hardware along with AN fittings.
Any and all design and comments will be greatly appreciated.
thanks guys

A 350 doesn't need a 52 TB unless you feel the need to blow $300. Stock injectors should be good to 350 rwhp, at least mine are.

Do you have a small distributor?

My HSR does need the small cap, regardles, I think you will like the HSR on your L98,

Here is some interesting reading for an HSR

, I would get a stocker from the Junk Yard for less than $225 I paid,
here is the info for the Distributor I bought, plus you need a remote mount coil with two wires to go to the distributor, dont be discouraged, its not a big deal at all

Truth be told, I didn't know you were in that thread, I just remember posting up the stuff. Funny though.

Larry,
Your set up looks beautiful! I notice only three bolts on the throttle body. How's that working out? No leaks? Do you have any 1/4 mile times yet? I'm still tuning but I'm gearing up for a visit to the track. I just installed a 58mm thottle body so I have to make some changes again.
As mentioned above the stock t.b. is 48 mm not 42.
Anyway glad to see another Vette with a Stealth Ram!

I did go to the track but my new clutch slips as bad as the one before. I may try to dyno the car, I don't know if the slippage would mess up the results or not. I will install a street twin or a RAM push type conversion by Spring, for sure
